A song titled 'Brattia Ukraintsi' (Brother Ukrainians) has been named the official anthem of the ATO.

"Thank you for composing and performing of the 'Brattia Ukraintsi' song, which has been named the official ATO anthem at the All-Ukrainian forum of veterans and participants of the anti-terrorist operation," the letter reads.

The musicians also thanked "all Ukrainians, in particular ATO veterans and participants, volunteers, the Presidential Administration for their appreciation of the band's work."
